Striking Sealers and Employers Un- able to Settle Their Trouble. ST. JOHNS, N. F., March matter of the strike of the cre sealing fleet, numbering about 3000 men, who yesterday demanded $4 per hundred- weight for the catch instead of $3 20, the rrevious scale, the sealing merc iast night determined not to accede to any of the terms submitted by the men. | 7he m ts intimated ifiat the price | for seal ould be at least $3 20 per hun- dredweight, the same as last year, but declined indicate whether an advance was likely. The authorities say that the | condition” of the foreign markets renders an advance improbabile. 5 Regarding the claims preserted by the men f rcommodations and other minor esslons, it i tood that the merchants are w ake reforms next year but declined to ter existing conditions under threa‘-of | ke. The matter is now at a deadlock other des are working hard to score a victor The owners and captains claim_ that the strike has virtually col- lapsed and that all the men are ready to sail to-morrow, being satisfied that cer- in modifications will follow. leaders of the sirike assert that will not sail to-morrow and that will be powerless.

NORFOLK, Va., March 9.—From pres- ent indications the strike is by no means sver. It is very probable that the strik- ers will not accept the terms of settle- ment named by the arbitration committee of the Chamoer of Commerce last night Nelther company nor strikers have de- | cided to accept the dec! n. The main « ection of the strike is that they are r uired to work with non-union men; ly 55 per cent will be employed and tnat they must sign the surety bond. The cars ran to-day under military guard | and to-night the guard was doubled. The | riot last night was the fiercest since the strike started and several soldiers and ens were injured. Sam Kelly, a strike leader, boarded a car to-day and abused a conductor. A fight with the guard followed and Kelly was clubbed on the head with a rifie butt. He was badly cut and when c | ried to the police station w covere | with blood. Later he was bailed for ap pearance in court LO~MOrrow. The gen- { eral opinion regarding the arbitration committee’s decision is that it is entirely in favor of the company. It is said the company is satisfied.

At the concert given by the Armstrong Association to Prince Henry Booker 1 shington, the colored leader, was pre- | ed to Prince Henry. ' The two chatted | | for two minutes, during which time the | Prince asked many questions as to tha | { negroes. He asked Mr. Washington for book of negro melodies and the latter omised to procure onme for him. After dining with the Vanderbilts the | Prince attended an informal reception at the New York Yacht Club. When the | Prince and his suite entered Commodore | | Lewls Cass Ledyard conducted the vis- | | itors to the “model room’” of the club, | where the Prince examined the models of | the different cup defenders, the trophfes | of the club and the America’s cup, To| ter Prince Henry devoted some admiring it greatly, Later he was 1 through the clubhouse and a light unch was served.

WASHINGTON, March 9.—The atten- tion of Secretary Wilson of the Agricul- tural Department was called to-day to re- orts that he contemplated soon resign- ng from the Cabinet. The Secretary treated the subject lightly, declaring that it was news to him and adding in reply to a specific inquiry, that he had no in- | tention of taking the step suggested. 1 NVESTIGATION MAY CAUSE SHAKE-UP OF ASSISTANTS OF FEDERAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY Ly orsax Hove -A-u.an: ASSISTANT UNITED STATES DIS- TRICT ATTORNEYS WHOSE CON- DUCT MAY BE INVESTIGATED. s - = E. J. Banning Said to Be Ardent Patron of HE faulty manner in which indictments were recentiy drawn by the Assistant United States District Attor- neys in the case of Charles R. Mains, charged with using the mails for fraudulent pur- poses, is likely to cause an inves gation by the Attorney General as to the method in which the office force is conducting itself, if such an investigation has not already commenced. Attorneys who practice in the Federal courts are commenting on the rebuke ad- { ministered from the bench by Judge de Haven, when last week he quashed the indictment against Mains. In. granting the motion of the defendant that the in- dictment be dismissed Judge de Haven sald: “It is an elementary rule of criminal law pleading that two or more separate offenses cannot be joined in a single count. The indictment is also defective, for the reason that the letters are not properly pleaded. There is no direct ai- TH ICTIM OF WURDERERS Texas Police Recover Another Body From Neches River. ST. LOUIS, March 9.—A special to the Republic from Beaumont. Texas, says the body of a fifth victim offfa gang of mur- derers and robbers was taken from the Neoches River in the eastern suburbs of Beaumont to-day. The first of the bodies was recovered in the early part of Janu- ary. At the finding of the fifth body every officer in the town was set to work on the mystery and this afternoon eighteen hoboes who have been living in the river bottom near the city were arrested and locked up on the suspicion that they are at the bottom of the series of robberies and murders. The body found to-day was that of a man about 45 years of age and it had lain in the water for perhaps thirty days. Every pocket in the clothing worn by the corpse had been rifled and the skull and jaw had been crushed in by a blow. ere was not a paper on the body by which it might be identified. The wounds in the head made it certain that the man had met death at the hands of a gang of murderers and robbers, since his death had been brought about exactly as in the case of the four victims previously taken from the river. The skull of each had been crushed and valuables which two of them were known to have had were miss- ing. The pockets bore evidences of hav- ing been rified In each case, Woodmen Prepare a Big Festival. SAN JOSE, March 9.—The Woodmen of Santa Clara County and all over the State are looking forward with great interest to the big gathering which is to be held at Turn Verein Hall in this city on the evening of March 22. It will be the big- gest “log-rolling” ever held in the county, and prominent officlals of the order in the State will be present. A class of 300 can- didates will be inftiated. The dozen camps in this county have been conducting a vig- orous campaign for the past two months for new members, .Camp Alamo of this city is to furnish 200 of the number, and {&e outside camps will bring in the other Sport to Neglect of His Duty. legation as to the substance of their con- tents.” Assistant United States District Attor- ney E. J. Banning was in charge of the case for the Government, and it is freely stated in legal circles that he may possi- bly be removed from office if the Attor- ney General becomes too inquisitive, The conduct of Duncan E. McKinlay, who is an assistant in the United States Dis- trict Attorney’s office, is also likely to be the subject of investigation. Banning and McKinlay are both young men, but it is a subject of ordinary gossip in the Federal building that they do not devote as much time to their duties as is ex- pected of them by the Government. BANNING IS A SPORT. Banning is said to be quite an authority on race horses and considerable surprise has been expressed that he was often seen at the race track during official hours. McKinlay is recognized as one of the best of political orators and his voice has often been heard in public gatherings. Even his friends say that he spends more of Uncle Sam’s time in preparing cam- paign speeches than he does in preparing HEATH TALKS OF POSSIBILITIES Republican Committee ‘Secretary in Los Angeles, Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, March 9—Perry 8. Heath, former First Assistant Postmas- ter-General and present secretary of the National Republican Committee, pro- prietor of the Salt Lake Tribune, oil and rallroad magnate and one of the best- known Republicans in the United States, is at the Angelus. He is here principally on account of the building of the new Salt Lake railroad, though he is willing to discuss almost anything but the plans of this road and the possibilities of Senator Hanna receiv- ing the nomination for the Presidency In 1904. He says that what resulted from his being interviewed on the question in London will be about all from him for some time. “l met Sendtor Hanna there three weeks ago,” sald he. “I don’t think I ever saw him looking better in his life. He is rosy-cheeked and looks as fresh and fit for campaign work as most of the younger men in the ranks. And he is hard at work as ever, though the great sorrow that has come into hfn life by the death of President McKinley will never go_out of it. “Roosevelt is Kleasing the people beyond a doubt. His honesty and sincerity are winning much for him. Will he have op- position in his party for renomination? Well, that's more than I care to answer, except to tell you that anything is likely to happen in politics. This will be a strenuous year in Republican campaigys, Gubernatorial and municipal, all over the e D, to in C “The Democrats in Congress are doin their hardest work and wgt they mom‘- plish there this session may be counted upon as evidence of every particle of de- veloped strength in thefr ranks, On that will depend thefr chances in the next campaign.” — Booksellers who supply English sch report that -:hfre has b‘oen'{ln‘re'eant y:::: a very great increase in German'school books. 9-Qunand, 108 D. E. McKinlay Keeps Busy on Stump Speeches. briefs for the Government. In the last few weeks emphatic pro- tests have been registered by attorneys as to the business methods of Banning and McKinlay, a frequent com- plaint being that they are not to be found in their offices when they should be there. United States District Attorney Mar- shall B. Woodworth is one of the hardest workers in the Federal building, and in siving him assistants the Government naturally supposed that they could ba relied upon to attend to their duties in a capable manner. ‘Woodworth cannot be held responsible for "the faulty indictment drawn in the Mains prosecution. He is not expected to revise the work of his assistants. If he had time to do this the presence of the assistants and the payment of their sal- aries could be dispensed with and the District “Attorney could do . their work himself. ( SHAKE-UP MAY COME. There is a well defined feeling in the Federal building and in legal circles that unless Banning and McKinlay pay more attention to their duties there will be a shake-up in the office of the United States District Attorney, and Marshall B. Woodworth will be given assistants willing to devote their time daily from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m. in return for their sal- aries. . E. J. Banning has served as assistant United States District Attorney since November, 1898, when he was appointed | by Judge Foote, who was then head of the office. Marghall B. Woodworth was appointed an assistant at the same time, and his careful attention to duty was finally recognized, when he was made the successor of Frank D. Coombs as District Attorney. In February of last year Ban- ning was reappointed to his present post, but it is problematical if he will be al- lowed to serve out his term. Duncan McKinlay hails Rosa and was a paintér for many years before he essayed the study of. Black- | stone and Kent. He has stumped the State many times for political candidates. and in 1896 he was placed on the electoral ticket by the Republican Statée Central Committee to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Colonel Crocker. Kinlay is 46 years of age and is a force- ful speaker, and it is generally admitted | that if he devoted as much time to his | duties as an assistant District Attorney as he does preparing speeches would be a bright prospect of his legal ability being substantially recognized. |BUTH FAGTIONS CLAIM VICTORY Fight on Cuban Reci- procity Promises to Be Close. ‘WASHINGTON, March = 8.—Sunday brought something of a lull in the agita- tion over Cuban reciprocity, although the elements for and against concessions con- tinued to prosecute their plans in antici- pation of the struggle on Tuesday night, when the fourth conference of House Re- publicans will be held. During the ‘day there were no formal meetings, but lead- ers on each side held many informal®con- ferences. The tactical plans of the Ways and Means Committee are largely committed to Representative Long of Kansas, who was busy prosecuting his canvass. was in consultation during the day with Speaker Henderson, who is taking an ac- tive Interest in having the Ways and Means Committee supported, on the ground that the opposition is one which to some extent affects the regular organi- zation of the House. The various consul- tations, however, did not lead to any new developments in the situation. Those who oppose the Ways and Means Com- mittee continued to assert that they had a list showing 108 Republican members, with some twenty-five others doubtful. If this clalm could be made good, it would be decisive in the coming confer- ence. But Payne and his associates, ‘while glvlng no figures, do not concede the strength claimed by the oppesition. ‘When seen to-night, Payne declined to say what the commiitee plans were or to make any claims, but said he was en- tirely satisfied with the situation. One of the leaders of the opposition element said that the main effort on Tuesday night would be to defer all action, at least to the next session of Congress. Harriman Party Grows Cautious.

Holds Detectives Responsible for Death of a Crimi- nal’s Father. Special Dispatch to The Call. CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo.,' March 9.—A sensational scene occurred yesterday at the funeral of S. E. Kuykendall, who died last Wednesday on hearing that his son, Kerch Kuykendall, had been convicted of attempt to kill Lee Glockner. Former At- torney General Eugene Engley, resting one hand on Kuykendall's coffin, raised his right hand and swore that he would drive every Pinkerton man from camp or dle trying. ~. ‘‘They have murdered the man who lies here,” he cried. ““God have mercy on me to_help me keep this oath.” Kerch Kuykendall was released by the Deputy Sheriff who sat beside him long enough to take the same oath of ven- geance on the detectives. | A few hours after the funeral Engley met John-C. Fraser, superintendent of the ‘Western branch of the Pinkerton agency, in the bar of a saloon. Engley thew open | his coat, drew a six-shooter and was about to level it at Fraser when a by- stander wrenched it from his hand.

ADVERTISEMENTS. for Many Is Responsible Fow people seem to be aware of the dan- gers of weak, defective and disordered diges- tlon. Health reports do not give it as a cause of death because some other diseass sets In to work destructive chlnl?fl. only made possible by the imperfect digestion, and the death is credited to them. Typhold fever Is credited with many deaths, yet were digestion always perfect there would be no typhold fever. Doetors call typhold “enteric,” meaning bowel fever. It1s due to a germ that in food or drinkis swallowed. It reaches the bowel only by way of the stomach.. It cannot live In the secretions of a vigorous stomach. Normal gastric julce would destroy and digestif. If the stomach Is weak and inactive disease germs may succeed in passing on Into the ‘bowel, In the secretions of which thay thrive and we suffer from the diseases that they engender. Thus a good digestion is a great safoguard against disease by destroying dan- gerous germs that in food and water enter the body through the stomach. Consumption is credited with nearly one- sixth of the deaths of adult persons. No account Is made in the mortality reports of the fact that the “chronie starvation” due to dyspepsia had so weakened the half-fed tissues and reduced their vital force and power of resistance as to predispose to the ravages of consumption. Fevers due to toxines or ptomalnes de- veloped in the body from putrefactive changes in rotting, half-digested food are credited with many deaths. No thought seems to be given to the fact that dyspepsia was the real cause. People do not seem to realize that imperfectly digested food pusri- fles, decomposes, ferments and develops iar poisons that are absorbed into the causing dangerous fevers, poisoning tissues and overtaxing those organs that have to eliminate it. Many other facts can be cited along Defective Digestion Vigorous Stomach Is the Great Natural Safeguard. Dangerous Diseases—A A strong means good rich biood; good blood means »-strong, well-nourished body, capable of resisting disease. Dyspepsia or indigestion is a common complaint. There is hardly a disease that is notattended with or complicated by impaired digestion.

There may be headaches, sleeplessness, generally out"” feeilngs, nervousness and depression, oppression about the heart, loss of flesh, & run-down condition hard to account for; and many vague, {ll-defined or obseure symptoms that are really due to defective digestion There are many remedies on the markst for impaired or perverted digestion but none are so economical, 30 safe. so effective, so popular as Stuart'’s Dyspepsia Tablets. Whether the dyspepsia is of long standing or is merely a case of temporary Indigestion, they give prompt and pronounced reifef. Their continued use will cure all forms of digestive inefMclency. By promoting perfect digestion Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets produce strong nerves, refreshing sleep, pure blood, sound and healthy flesh; make the skin clear, the eyas bright, the mind cheerful. They give vigor and vitality to tissues and functions that enable them to resist all manner of disease. Germs and microbes swallowed in food and drink are destroyed by the gastric juice and thus many diseases are prevented. No por- tlons of food escape digestion to rot in the bowel below and generate toxines and ptomaines that will poison the, blood and tissues and menacs life. 7\ Stuarts’s Dyspepsia Tablats are easily and cheaply obtained.
